Is this considered acceptable behavior toward a guest?
I accepted the invitation to come visit her ailing mother and to stay in my friend’s home. They live in a city about 1,200 miles away. I drove out there , which took three days and two overnight stops.
There was a bit of bother — finding a place to stay at the last minute in an unfamiliar area — and a bit of expense, but it all proved manageable. But I have sometimes wondered: What would be the correct thing for a hostess to do in such circumstances?My husband and I have gone to several restaurants that have valet parking.
